Classical Conversations Cycle 1 Week 13 Resources

I receive commissions for purchases made through links in this post. Please see our full disclosure policy for more details. Thank you for supporting Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood through your purchases.

Welcome to our link buffet for CC Cycle 1 Week 13! All of the following resources (and more) have already been available (organized by subject) on our Cycle 1 Resources Page. There are several resources on our Cycle 1 Subject Resources Pages that span multiple weeks. Don’t forget to check them out (especially math, science, and history!). You will not find memory work verbiage in my links lists or in my documents.

Please do not copy and paste these links into other emails, documents, or websites. If you would like to share these links with others, please send them a link to this webpage. By honoring this request, you ensure that our family’s efforts to provide free homeschool resources can continue. Thank you for using and recommending Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood to others. It blesses us in return!


Cycle 1 with the Great Commission in Mind

After designing curriculum plans for over a decade, we developed a Christian Classical Curriculum called Mission: Great Commission that integrates the study of the world and the ongoing fulfillment of the Great Commission, with a focus on loving God, His Word, and fellow mankind. For an open-and-go reading/curriculum plan that overlaps much of the memory work studied during Cycle 1 – along with an integrated study of world missions, world empires & geography, fine arts, and science, check out our Mission: World Wonders Curriculum Plan.


 

For a simple plan on how to use these resources, download our Cycle 1 First Quarter Sample Activity Plan.

The Link Buffet: Extension Activities

Pick and choose what you wish to do!

Although we make this available to our readers, our family spent more time reading and working on core skills during the elementary-school years, keeping our schedule open for playing board games together; or researching something that our children were interested in; or pursuing poetry, art, or music; or doing a random science investigation or nature study. We used our resource lists as resource lists – that is, when we wished to quickly find a resource I’d come across in the past, we referenced this list. I call it the “Link Buffet.” This is simply meant to be a reference site.

Please notify me of broken or inoperable links, and I’ll be glad to fix them! If you’d like to add a great resource to this list, feel free to contact me or leave it in the comments! Also note that there may be affiliate links in this post. Clicking on these links before you make your Amazon purchases does not cost you anything extra, but we receive a small commission from your Amazon purchase. If you use our affiliate links, we really appreciate it because… it not only supports the cost of this website and helps to support our family, but it also helps us to maintain this portion of our website. Thanks so much for supporting Half-a-Hundred Acre Wood!
